I've been a massive fan of apprenticeships (some are better than others though so you have to watch out). You need 10000 hours to develop the taste needed to be a valuable engineer and a bootcamp gives you 1000. Doing apprenticeships for 2 years can get you almost there. You can rush it and you have to put in the time.
